Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between university students' dental fear and their psychological hardiness and subjective well-being, promote positive awareness of and access to dental service, and develop a plan for continuous oral health care. To collect data, convenience sampling of college students in North Jeolla Province was performed, and they were asked to complete a self-administered questionnaire from May 1 to 30, 2017. Dental fear was negatively correlated with both psychological hardiness and subjective well-being, and psychological hardiness and subjective well-being were positively correlated with each other. University students' dental fear, psychological hardiness, and subjective well-being were found to be correlated with one another; therefore, dental clinics need to apply a positive style of coping, taking into account psychological responses suitable for clinical competence on the basis of satisfactory communication, with the objective of promoting oral health.

본 연구의 목적은 대학생들의 치과공포도와 심리적 강인성 및 주관적 안녕감과의 관련성을 파악하여 치과진료에 대한 긍정적인 인식과 접근성을 향상하고, 계속적인 구강건강관리 도모를 위한 방안을 모색하고자 실시하였다. 자료 수집은 2017년 5월 1일부터 5월 30일까지 전북지역의 대학생을 대상으로 편의추출하여 자기기입식방법으로 설문을 작성하였다. 치과공포도와 심리적 강인성은 음의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났고, 주관적 안녕감과도 음의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 심리적 강인성과 주관적 안녕감은 양의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 대학생들의 치과공포도, 심리적 강인성 및 주관적 안녕감은 서로 상관성이 있는 것으로 나타나 치과에서는 구강건강증진을 위해 충분한 사전 의사소통을 통한 각 진료 역량에 맞는 심리적 대응을 고려하여 적극적인 대처법을 적용할 필요가 있을 것으로 사료된다.
